Do you want a remake? - Page 34

October 11, 2008, 8:19 PM

Ok. Let's go through this. A game is not made entirely great by graphics. Yes they help a bit, but if you were into the series enough to play the game, you would have finished VII just to experience the amazing story-line. I still play the older games like I-VI even though the graphics suck, but most of them have good story lines and are just overall a fun experience. So, don't knock graphics before you experience the game. Anyway, a remake wouldn't be a bad idea. I'd like to see what the PS3's system could do for a game like FFVII, as long as they don't change anythigna bout the storyline

By remaking FFVII, you'll get rid of peoples' procrastination of playing just because it had, by today's standards, sucky graphics. People will really see how truly amazing FF is and will start to be hooked on it.

This is part of the problem though... People may start to play the new FF7 for the wrong reasons. People may play it because of the stunning graphics, and still not care for the story, music, gameplay or general atmosphere.
If the original team got back together and made only a graphical improvement, then I could live if they do one... But if they start making it with FF12's battle system, linear style, no world map, no airship, crap music, fewer comedy, and less magical quality than the original, then I'll be a very sad man indeed. Even if the masses are happy because they have pretty graphics to look at...

The masses seem to almost always get wha they want because it makes the company money. I am beginning to wonder if a remake is a good thing for FF7 because of what the previous poster above just stated. To be honest I would rather play the original game, while the thought of a remake sounds enticing I would rather play the orignial for the reason that it had humor, Nobuo Uematsu music and it possesses a charm to it that separates from other JRPGs.

I would like that very much, as long as they leave the damn plot alone. A new battle system is still considerable, since that might actually add a fresh touch to the game, along with the graphics and voiceovers.

Hell Yes, I mean. . .Hell Yes, I'd buy a PS3 just for it. . . aayyee.. . .

I really hope they do remake the game. The choppy graphics from the PS one need to be justified in a totally brand new version that will make you shed a tear when you see it again.

I voted yes, but only as long they stick to the greatness the game orginally was and dont change a think other than making it look better...

if they start screwing with the storyline, adding characters or changing the plot in any way they would only mess it up.

I want a re-make, and at the same time I don't. FFVII has gotten so much attention already. I wish they would've decided to re-make the game before all of the AC/DOC nonsense. X_x; I have always wanted the original game to be re-made, however, simply because I wanted to see such a great game in better graphics. ;D Though, I hear the re-make of the game isn't going to be turn-based. And that would just blow.

You mean you prefer the Turn-Based to Active Time Battles like In Kingdom Hearts? Seriously the Turn Based has to die in Final Fantasy, unless they remove the random encounters and show the enemies on map and fight were you stand. Otherwise I don't like the idea.

Agree, they would probably come with the idea Aerith would somehow survived...
*Points at FFX-2 Secret Ending*

I would rather seen a FFVII remake with every single character in it, and Instead of adding new characters, they could show more of each character story, Like how did AVALANCHE joined up, the events of Vincent Valentine when he was on the Turks, play with them as well in the storyline.

Also re-create all WEAPONS fight Sapphire WEAPON as well. And fight them again in a whole new system and environment from previous FF.

The battle system I would love to be like Kingdom Hearts, where you would edit your characters are you seem fit and choose which combos, Special Moves they would do. But be able to control ANY character not just the main one. Also a 2P would be an awesome idea.

Oh and the Remake for PS3 not DS or PSP

well i saw your question a few days ago but couldnt decide.
but i thought on it and im not sure
on one hand it would be good because PS1 is history so getting one on a PS3 wud be handy but on the other hand if you did remake it then it would have brilliant graphics which mean it wouldnt be same
